Rehearsal Notes

Just a few notes from rehearsals so far:

• "Houston, we have a problem." A rather large one. We seem to have lost a cast member. I say "seem" because the gentleman in question has not shown up to rehearsal yet. He is new to this area, so perhaps there has been some major communications snafu. But if it isn't, he's got two problems:
  
  
  1. He's just blown off one of the more talented directors in this area.
     
  2. The cast he's just blown off is composed of six directors.
  
  It's still early in the process, so I'm not too concerned. But we need to get this guy or his replacement in here ASAP.
  
• We laid down nine pages of blocking last night. At this rate, we'll have the whole show blocked by Labor Day weekend. And that's a good thing, because then we can start acting as opposed to moving around with scripts in our hands pretending to be actors.
  
• There is a question about my hair. It may not be colored! But that matter is still up for debate.

More notes when they become available.
